Well, it doesn't sound like a *software* problem to me. Let's see.
|It started when I had a blazing red screen on start up[...]
|I fixed this by uninstalling all AVGfree 7 files.
|
...or this was just a coincidental temporal correlation (not causation).
|The computer was fine for a while, then this started again,
|and now the screen is black.
|I am using another monitor attached to the laptop right now.

So, a totally black screen while POSTing? (A HUGE indicator.)
...and a totally black screen after booting to DOS? (A BIG indicator.)
...and a totally black screen after loading Windoze in Safe Mode?
...and a totally black screen after loading Windoze in Normal Mode?
Sounds like you called this one on the first line:
A **hardware** problem, requiring an (electronics) repair technician
who is prepared to work on your brand and model of laptop.
